Tracking down every collectible in Marvel's Spider-Man 2 adds a fun layer of exploration to the open-world NYC map, and Hell's Kitchen holds a few distinct Spider-Bots waiting to be discovered. These small mechanical spiders emit a noticeable pink and purple pulse wave accompanied by an audible ping when you get close. Locating them requires combining keen observation skills with high-speed swinging throughout the neighborhood.
The Spirit Spider Bot Near the Church
One of the main Spider-Bots in Hell's Kitchen pays homage to Spirit Spider and is located near the church building on the western side of the district. As you approach the back wall of the historic structure, listen closely for the distinct audio cue that announces the bot's presence. Wall-crawling down the masonry allows you to snag this collectible effortlessly.
If you miss the initial sound, look out for the glowing translucent energy rings pulsing off the side of the church tower. Staying tuned to daily gaming news often provides useful walkthrough strategies for clearing district collectibles quickly. Once you spot the aura, press the interact button mid-air or off the wall to snag it.
The Rhino Spider Bot Near the Factory Ruins
Heading toward the western edge near the docks leads you right into the territory of the Rhino Spider Bot. This collectible hovers near a tall industrial smokestack surrounding the warehouse district. You will need to web-sling to a high vantage point to gain enough momentum to catch it mid-air.
Positioning yourself on top of a adjacent crane or building edge gives you the perfect angle to dive and web-glide toward the bot. Timing your jump when the bot reaches the peak of its float cycle makes capturing it simple and seamless. Grabbing it completes another step toward unlocking the district's secrets.
The Vulture Spider Bot High Above the City
The final Spider-Bot in Hell's Kitchen references Vulture and can be found hovering high in the sky between several skyscrapers in the northeastern section. Because it floats far above the rooflines, you cannot simply wall-crawl your way up to grab it. You must utilize wind tunnels or launch off high perches to reach its height.
Glide into the thermal updraft nearby to gain maximum altitude before deploying your Web Wings toward the target. Aligning your flight path directly with the pulsing energy sphere ensures you grab the bot before descending back to street level. Mastering this aerial trajectory saves time and prevents repeated attempts.
Tips for Finding Hidden Spider-Bots
If you struggle to locate any remaining bots, remember that Spider-Bots do not show up as standard icons on the mini-map until you are immediately next to them. Instead, keep your eyes on the skyline and listen for the rhythmic chimes that trigger when you enter their search radius. Visual pulse rings will always guide you to their exact position even from a block away.
Upgrading your traversal skills early in the campaign makes reaching high-altitude targets much easier across all districts. Taking the time to collect every spider-themed gadget rewards completionists with interesting lore and unique suit unlocks. Hell's Kitchen can be fully cleared within minutes once you know where each bot resides.
